The author suggests Arch Linux for Desktop use. I used Arch for 2 years and liked it. It still runs on my raspberry.

I wouldn't recommend it for any serious work where downtime costs you money though. There are just too many occasions where Arch renders your Desktop unusable because of an upgrade. You have to pay close attention to the news on the homepage for any system breaking changes (which is kind of ridiculous). And even then a system may occasionally render your system unbootable just because.
